example 1

[0211]In Example 1, a substantially non-releasable form of an opioid antagonist (naltrexone HCL) was prepared by coating naltrexone particles with a coating that renders the antagonist substantially non-releasable.

Abstract

Disclosed is an oral dosage form comprising (i) an opioid agonist in releasable form and (ii) a sequestered opioid antagonist which is substantially not released when the dosage form is administered intact, such that the ratio of the mean Cmax of the antagonist after single dose oral administration of the dosage form after tampering to the mean Cmax of antagonist after single dose oral administration of an intact dosage form is at least 1.5:1.

Description

[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10 / 214,408, filed Aug. 6, 2002 now abandoned, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60 / 310,533, filed Aug. 6, 2001, the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Opioid formulations are sometimes the subject of abuse. A particular dose of oxycodone may be more potent when administered parenterally as compared to the same dose administered orally. Also, some formulations can be tampered with to provide the opioid agonist contained therein better available for illicit use. For example, a controlled release opioid agonist formulation can be crushed to provide the opioid contained therein available for immediate release upon oral or parenteral administration.[0003]Opioid antagonists have been combined with certain opioid agonists to deter the parenteral abuse of opioid agonists. In the prior art, the combination of ...
